Each have their talents and drawbacks. Some look for an automatic payout for a Manned Mars Program. Sadly, the Manned Mars Program is not a slot machine. Profit will be made, over time. New tech will be forthcoming and profit will be made. Nothing will bring the the world together like the mission to Mars. It happened before with the Moon missions and it will happen again with the Mars missions. Leave the Muslims to their Islam. Leave Korea to it's --- whatever. America is the only country that is able to pull off such a feat. Sadly SETNAFFA IN #10 is correct. Our current "leadership" is holding the US down. I can only assume it is part of the "spread the wealth" Socilisst policy of our current President. However he does have a beautiful smile and lovely family, which I also assume is the reason he was elected in the first place. I do like him so! He can buy me a beer anytime. Too bad he does not love America and seeks to marginalize it. Government and private industry can work together for a Mars Program. Each have their talents and drawbacks.

You don’t say." I didn't say anything about weather. I quoted information about general climate differences between North and South Korea. "The climate in Pyeongyang and in Seoul is nearly identical." Even though Seoul is in northern South Korea and Pyongyang is in southern North Korea, you are still wrong. A quick check of Wikipedia and weatheronline (dot) co (dot) uk shows that Pyongyang has just over half the rainfall of Seoul. Pyongyang is also several degrees cooler. You may claim this is insignificant but the average temperature difference is far more than global warming supporters claim will be the doom of mankind. In this case, warmer is better. I don't want to debate global warming with you. I just want to show the truth about North and South Korea climate differences. Sometimes admitting you are wrong and moving on is the most productive course of action. Teadrinker:

I watched the rest of the video. Denying that the Cheonan was sunk by North Korea by trying to discredit the investigation by insinuating that it was a biased South Korean one when in fact it was conducted by an international panel? Making excuses for North Korea shelling Yeongpyeong (and the murder of South Koreans) because North Korea claims the island? She's absurd. PS. I watched the rest of the video.
